About

The Wild Ways is not a separate legal entity, it is a collective brand and

umbrella identity that connects our work, our story, and our shared ethos.

 

Under The Wild Ways banner, we offer:

 

• A shared website and digital platform

• A unified visual identity

• Co-produced events, webinars, and resources

• Coordinated communications and safeguarding policies

• Collective commitment to equity, inclusion, and neurodivergent-affirming practice

 

The brand and website are currently maintained by Raising a Wild Child Ltd, with shared access and input from all three organisations.

​

Financial & Legal Responsibilities

 

Each of the three organisations:

 

• Has its own bank account

• Manages its own income, expenditure, and reserves

• Retains responsibility for its own service delivery and contractual obligations

 

All donations, payments, or contracts are processed by the specific organisation delivering the service. Our payment pages and receipts make this clear. If you’re unsure which organisation is delivering a service, please just ask – we’re always happy to clarify.

​

Cost-Sharing & Governance

 

Where costs are shared (e.g. website hosting, administration, safeguarding systems), these are split on a real-cost basis with no profit or mark-up applied. Agreements are in place to:

 

• Prevent public or donated funds being used for private gain

• Maintain compliance with the CIC Regulator’s rules and asset-lock protections

• Ensure full transparency in grant reporting and tax treatment

 

We also maintain shared safeguarding protocols, training frameworks, and a unified approach to community safety and inclusion.

​

Accountability & Oversight

 

Each organisation:

 

• Submits its own annual accounts to Companies House

• CICs file a CIC34 report each year detailing their public benefit and community impact

• Maintains its own board of directors, who are legally responsible for that entity only

• Publishes key policies and reports on our website for public access

 

You can request copies of our filings, or ask about any aspect of our governance, at any time.
